Syrians have seized on the partial cease-fire, particularly the bombing of civilian areas, and have come out in the streets in demonstrations and protest actions. Hundreds of such actions were recorded over a space of a few days. Almost all of these protests were by civilians who took up once again the slogans of the popular uprising of 5 years ago to demand the fall of the regime, for dignity and freedom. These protests show that in spite of all of the reactionary and imperialist interventions, the resistance that started five years ago has not been crushed.
